Report Description

Global Castor Oil-Based Biopolymer market is anticipated to grow significantly through 2028 due to growing demand from the automotive industry. In 2018, consumer goods accounted for a 28% share of the total global demand for bio-based polymers.

Additionally, the growing trend to minimize non-degradable polymer usage and adopt sustainable alternative solutions in the different sectors is further expected to drive market growth. Castor Oil-Based Biopolymer is a degradable, lightweight, chemical, and abrasion resistance material. As bio-polymer are used in the manufacturing of automobile parts both for the interior area like dashboard, mats as well as for the exterior area of the automobile  to provide shiny finish. Therefore, increasing production and sales of premium automobiles result in the growth of market during the forecast period.

Furthermore, the increasing demand from the textile industry, oil & gas sector, household applications, and others are the crucial factors that propel the market’s growth. Various companies and research organizations operating in the market also focus on developing such eco-friendly products. This, in turn, is expected to create huge prospects for market growth in the coming years.

Rising demand from the Automotive Industry

Demand for environment friendly biopolymer products is anticipated to rise due to increased public awareness worldwide and strict government restrictions aimed at promoting a carbon-neutral economy. Moreover, the expansion of market innovations is anticipated to be aided by expanding R&D efforts and rising spending. As of the rising demand for lightweight materials in the automotive sector, castor oil-based biopolymers are in big demand since they give vehicles durability and luminosity. Automobile manufacturers are adopting strategies and spending money on techniques that lighten overall vehicle weight for improved fuel efficiency. In addition, castor oil-based lightweight parts help in minimizing carbon emissions during manufacturing resulting in the demand in the forecast years.

For instance, according to OICA, the manufacturing of light commercial vehicles grew to 18,593,846 units in 2021, up from 17,217,990 units in 2020.

Increasing demand from various end-user

Characteristics such as easy processing, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, toughness, and dimensional stability is resulting in the demand from various end users. Additionally, increasing usage of biodegradable biopolymers in sporting goods including shoes and helmets increases the demand for castor-oil-based biopolymers. All these factors are accelerating the castor oil-based biopolymer market growth in the upcoming years.

Bio-Polyamides Will Continue to Be a Key Polymer Type

Different properties such as high thermal conductivity, high stiffness, flame resistance, low moisture assimilation, high specific strength, superior impact resilience, and chemical stability attributed to polyamide make it superior in the biopolymer. Moreover, weight reduction continues to be a significant factor in significantly reducing fuel efficiency. These factors are anticipated to increase the use of bio-polyamides in the forecast years.

Recent Developments

  • In October 2022, A polyester-based headrest cover called "Ultrasuede nu" was created by Toray Industries, Inc. The cover is made up of three different structures: scrim, elastomer, and ultra-fine fibers. Polyurethane substance based on castor oil makes up the elastomer.
  • Arkema has benefited from robust growth for its biobased Pebax® Rnew® grades, derived from renewable castor beans in September 2022.
  • Nylon grade (N510) fiber, created using only plant-based fiber, has been made commercially available, according to Toray Industries, Inc. in January 2022.
  • In October 2021, a new bio-based polyamide 11 powder plant opened in China, according to an announcement by Arkema.
